In certain industry areas, such as the automotive, aerospace, energy, chemistry and civil engineering sectors, detailed knowledge of complex phenomena related to mass transfer (fluid mechanics) and energy transfer (thermal management, heat transfer) is essential for the design, development and optimization of systems that can be implemented in products related to these industries. Some examples of applications are listed below:
  • Aerospace. More efficient and less polluting aircraft. Optimization of the propulsion system, auxiliary systems and components (APU, ECS, flight control systems...), and external aerodynamics.
  • Automotive. Adaptation of the vehicle fleet to future anti-pollution regulations. Development of new combustion systems in reciprocating engines, hybridization, batteries and thermal management, and post-treatment of exhaust gases.
  • Energy. Optimization of wind turbines, solar farms, and new power generation systems (hydrogen).
  • Civil engineering. Structure optimization.
Knowledge and research in all these areas make a contribution to the fulfilment of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), which are primarily aimed at the eradication of poverty and the protection of the planet.
The techniques for analysing these phenomena can be experimental or theoretical. The experimental techniques allow us to know the phenomena directly by determining the different variables with the corresponding measurement techniques in physical models or scale systems that represent the real system. However, the amount of information available may be limited and insufficient and, furthermore, the economic cost of certain experimental techniques is very high.

More programs from the university

There are a number of bachelor’s degrees at Universitat Politecnica de Valencia.

To get onto an undergraduate program at UPV, you will need to:

• Have passed the University Access Test of the Spanish education system
• Have passed a Specific Higher Vocational Training, Advanced Plastic Arts and Design Specialist and Advanced Sports Specialist
• Have passed the University Entrance Examinations for over 25s or 45s or the procedure for those over 40 with professional or work experience
• Hold a university degree
• Hold the required studies, according to the educational system of a foreign country and meeting the academic requirements required in their educational systems to access their universities. Students must obtain the corresponding accreditation at the UNED, which may require the prior approval of their degrees of access


At UPV, all degrees have admission caps indicating the maximum number of new students who can enrol in certain classes. Students who pre-enrol are arranged based on their admission mark and this determines who is offered a place.

For tuition, students can either make payment in one instalment, two instalments, or in eight instalments.

International students on undergraduate programs must undergo the university’s pre-registration process, and different dates are assigned to each Autonomous Community. Before carrying out the pre-registration students must obtain the necessary documentation at the UNED .


To earn a place at postgraduate level on a master’s degree program at UPV, students must:

• Hold an official university degree in Spain or a degree issued by a higher education institution belonging to another member state of the EHEA that authorizes access to master’s degrees

Graduates may also access a master's degree according to educational systems outside the EHEA without validating their degree if the university is equivalent to a Spanish university degree.

After the corresponding pre-registration process, students will be admitted if they hit the academic criteria. In some cases, a student may be required to complete complementary training based on the previous accredited training.

Students can pay their tuition in one instalment, two instalments, or in eight instalments.

International students need to undergo the university pre-registration process.
